I love how it is convenient to use with no cord. It is lightweight enough for me to handle because I have arthritis in my hands and knees. What I absolutely hate is that I can only vacuum on room before it needs to be fully charged again. I have to get out my corded vacuum and use that to finish my house. Wish there was a way to have another battery charged and ready to go. I will not buy another Eureka cordless vacuum again.
